Well since DH and I don't give too much weight to Valentine's Day, we were probably more excited that we got to see a new episode of Lost (and Top Design.) So we each bought each other a chocoalte bar and hunkered down to watch the episode.

So let's stop all that filler nonsense and get down to business. I? Though that tonight's epi was very cool. Half way through a friend of ours stopped by to pick some stuff up and she was transfixed even though she had never watched Lost. So there was definitely some hooks in it.

I loved that they introduced some sort of element of time travel. Can Desmond really travel through time, or was he just dreaming? Did he get blown through some weird space/time continuum?

I wish we would've seen some of Locke...I miss him. I wonder what his take on the whole thing would be...that you can't escape your fate, because the universe has some sort of self-correcting tendencies.

Speaking of which, that old woman who explains things to Desmond and won't sell him the ring...is she 'the Universe' trying to self correct by convincing Desmond not to marry Penny? That's the theory I kind of subscribe too, although DH thinks maybe she is a fellow 'stuck in time' type of person.

Next week promises to answer three questions, and it looks like one of them is what happened to all the people they snatched. they keep showing the woman who says 'We're here to watch' Watch what??

It was a great episode, IMHO. It made me more excited about Lost again. And it delivered the news that Charlie's gonna die, no matter what Desmond tries. I don't mind Charlie, although I know most people don't like him too much, so I thought of all the high fives going on when Desmond revealed he wasn't trying to save Claire, but Charlie.

Anxious to hear everyone's thoughts.
